He will deserve credit but so far overall I think he's made Khan worse, over complicates things hasn't helped other fighters. I don't think he sees what makes fighters good tries to get them all to fight like Andre ward
Virgil is the best regardless of this outcome. In fact when Khan is knocked out it won't detract one iota from Virgil. This is the fight Khan wanted so he could retire and live comfortably, hence the reasons he's fought non punchers since Danny KTFO of Khan.
I think Jackson is a close second but he's more to prove just yet.
I don't rate Roach anymore and Sanchez is a clown.
My thoughts are he is already considered one of the best trainers in boxing. Most top trainers have their boxers in many fights each year. No one single fight win like Khan beating Canelo is going to make him automatically the best trainer in boxing. What if several other boxers he trains lose important fights in the same year? To be considered the best trainer in boxing I think a trainer needs to consistently have the fighters he trains win the majority of their fights. One big win won't do it. I am pretty sure Khan will get knocked out and it won't be Hunter's fault. Khan just isn't good enough to beat Canelo no matter who trains him.
I've never been totally impressed with Hunter. I give him a lot of credit for Ward who is excellent, but i've never really seen any evidence of another fighter going to work with him and improving a lot. Also he never seems to give any useful advice between rounds. He just does these little motivational speeches rather than actually any advice about the fight taking place.
But if Khan does go through the Canelo fight and looks very good defensively, then i will give Hunter big credit.
